I Ain't No Hollaback Girl!

When I was a young girl, I would have been the spokesperson for the Street Harrassment Coalition.

After I had two kids, you won't find me posting here. I sure ain't no Hollaback Girl. I'd like to know how they feel in 20 years and a few kids later!

Geeeez, I'd PAY to have men catcall me now. Don't laugh --- I seek out construction sites.

If nothing else, HollaBack New York City is a guidebook to how hilariously gross some men can be. (And of course I can live vicariously through the young women now....)

Here's an example of the postings......

"Hello Baby Doll."

Hello Mr. Dude in suit who likes to holla at women while carrying home your wife's dry cleaning.

sing with me -- "This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine. This little light of mine- I'm gonna let it shine LET IT SHINE LET IT SHINE LET IT SHINE.

If you got it - FLAUNT IT. while you STILL HAVE IT : )

Cheers, Heidi

yeah but...what about when they just seem icky and creepy and kind of follow you making kissy noises and going "what?! what?! you too stuck-up to talk to me!"? that's not really so fun. hard to take THAT as a complement!

Try being the only attractive female working at a car dealership. You really have to have thick skin. Why is it that a sexist comment that comes from an OLD MAN isn't as nasty as the same comment coming from a YOUNG MAN .
